Garnier-Thiebaut
Care Instructions
100% Cotton Table & Kitchen linens (not Green Sweet or Coated)
- Wash separately before the first use (95ºF – warm temperature).
- Machine wash (between 95ºF and 140ºF – warm temperature) with a color safe detergent.
- Tumble dry on medium setting.
- Iron on high setting on the back side.
Green Sweet linens
- No need to wash before first use.
- In case of stain or spill, first remove any solid residue, then gently dab the spill or stain with a damp sponge.
- If the stain is not completely gone, machine-wash within 24 hours on warm temperature with a color safe detergent. No fabric softener.
- Tumble dry medium. Do not use dryer sheets.
- Iron on high setting. The heat will help regenerate the stain resistant property of the fabric.
Coated Cotton linens
Everyday use
- Simply wipe off with damp sponge and some warm water (no rubbing, no scratching).
- Do not use dish soap or any cleaning product.
Occasionally
- Machine-wash on warm temperature on delicate cycle with a little detergent. No fabric softener.
- Hang dry only.
- Iron on high setting (back side only). Be sure not to iron the hems.
- If used outdoor, do not leave outside after use.
Pre-washed linen or Metis Table linen
- Wash separately before the first use (95ºF – warm temperature).
- Machine wash (between 95ºF and 140ºF – warm temperature) with a color safe detergent.
- No need to iron. If you wish to reduce the “wrinkled” look, iron on high setting.
- Hang dry only.
Bed Linen
- Untangle the sheets before placing them in the machine
- Wash separately before the first use (95ºF – warm temperature) with a little detergent and a small amount of white vinegar (for colored bedding only). Wash on the reverse side. The white vinegar will help preserve the brightness of the colors over time.
- Wash white and colored linens separately. All the members of the bedding set should be washed together to maintain color consistency.
- Machine wash, following the care label instructions.
- Tumble dry on medium setting. Remove quickly from tumble dryer to limit wrinkles.
- Line drying your white bedding outdoor in the sun will preserve the brightness of the white.
- If you find it necessary, iron your bed linen while still a little damp. Note that 100% cotton sheets will wrinkle to some extent, especially when new. Your body will place tension on the sheets as you sleep and they'll be a little less wrinkly the next day.
